Indeed it does if all the Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR updates I got were any indication. I also have noticed it is faster than the bluetooth on slightly older machines as well.

Support in software doesn't necessarily guarantee hardware support. Are you sure T43 can do EDR? What is the CSR firmware shown by Widcomm? With bluetooth 2.0 EDR, one can FTP files at over 40kBytes/s.

- ThinkPad T43 (*2), T43p (*2)
*2: Enhanced Data Rate is not supported due to the H/W restriction.

Good find you have there.

So there is a difference not only between the T43 and the T42, but between the T43 and the others.

I also see that they have the Z61t, Z61m, R60, and R60e listed as well.
